Protective painting is a specially developed type of paint for protecting steel. It is used in all types of construction, from bridges to homes. It is usually made up of three coats, a primer, an intermediate and a finish coat. This three coat system as recently replaced the older technique of five or six coats. The paint can be applied in a number of ways, such as brushing, rolling or using an air or airless spray:

Why use protective spray?

Steel makes up a huge part of all construction work, and forms the core supports of most constructions. Keeping this in mind, it is imperative that these materials are protected from the elements, to make sure that there is nothing that can compromise their integrity.

Even internal supports are exposed to water moisture, and if one of these supports was to become damaged, there would be no way of telling until it was too late. This highlights the importance of making sure that any metals are properly protected.

When it comes to metals that are exposed, they are even more vulnerable to damage and corrosion. Wind and rain can do a substantial amount of damage over time, and it is also important to consider what the wind might bring with it. Sand and grit in the air will all take their toll, and it is always better to protect against the elements, rather than run the risk of needing to carry out substantial repairs down the line.

Anytime that steel is being used, some form of protection should be applied to it. Due to the cost effective nature of the paint, it is a great tool in offering people the best value for money, whilst also ensuring peace of mind.

Before any protective paint is applied to the steel, it should first be properly prepared. This process is essential, and is regarded as the most important stage of protecting steel, as it provides the ground work for the paint to work from. The most effective way of cleaning steel to prepare it for the paint is via abrasive blast cleaning. This process makes sure that the steel is in the very best condition to receive the paint, which will then give the very best of results.
